Yeah Baylor and Temple were recruiting powerhouses. 

Who were their opponents?

If you look back at Matt Rhule's college record, you'll find that in the vast majority of cases where they faced an actual decent college team, they lost.

It's one of the reasons why his hype was so overblown.

Whoever was on the schedule.

Players for Baylor and Temple made it into the NFL. These were players that the big teams didn't want.  Say what you want, but he developed lesser players into NFL talent.  He didn't have the LSU recruiting staff or reputation.

You implied that Rhule relied on recruiting talent.  I call bullshit.

Like PJ Walker? 😆

Rhule made a name for himself by improving teams, but never to the point where they were championship level (or even capable of beating teams that were actually good for that matter).

Looking at that resumé and thinking he deserved full control of an NFL team was flat out stupid.

You may as well just handed the team over to the coach who guided App State to that one upset win over Michigan. Cool moment sure, but not substantial enough to deserve this sort of thing.

Temple improved. 

I always felt Rhule got too much credit for Baylor.  They got punished.  And then went back to being what they were before being punished.   They were in the top 10 every year pre-Rhule/punishment.

Like Hassan Reddick.   LOL

He took Baylor from 1-11 to being ranked 13th.  Yes they lost to Oklahoma after squandering a 25 point lead and then again in Big 12 Championship to lose in OT.  But Baylor  is not Oklahoma with 50 conference titles and 7 national titles. 

The fact of the matter is, Baylor and Temple players overperformed while he was there.


The Rhule hatred runs so deep that actually generates love for poor Joe Brady who has never accomplished anything as an OC anywhere. 

Brady was carried by superior talent.  Rhule just simply wasn't.

Huddlers complain that Rhule hired inexperienced coaches, so when Rhule fires THE MOST INEXPERIENCED, huddlers respond with love threads for Joe Brady.  Vomit.

Not defending Rhule but rather fact checking here.

 

Baylor only had 4 ranked seasons the 14 seasons prior to Rhule and they only had 6 seasons with a winning record since 2000. Thats far from being in the top 10.  Also, Baylor has only finished in the top 10 twice in the last 20 years....

 

Pirior to 2000, Baylor only had 2 ranked seasons since 1983. Over a 70 year span Baylor has only finished as a top 10 ranked team... three times: 1951 , 2014, and 2021.

At Temple he beat the following better teams than his: Penn State, UCF, USF, Cincy, Memphis.  At Baylor he beat the following better teams than his: Texas, TCU, OSU, West Vir., Iowa State.

 

Both Temple and Baylor sucked when he took over and were lacking in talent. He was a very good college coach.  That doesn't always (and almost never when you think of it) translate to the NFL. Didn't for Saban or Myer either.

Honest NFL is a former NFL scout who posts a lot of play analysis. Pretty good follow if you're into the nuts and bolts of football.

His opinion here is that Brady was "scapegoated" and ultimately let go more because he didn't mesh with Matt Rhule than anything else.

Matt Rhule can't even mesh with his own offense. Matt Rhule can't get out of his own way. Matt Rhule wants to ride failed NFL QBs to "victory", collecting them. Matt Rhule, instead of riding on the back of a new rookie QB and the hope and optimism he brings to justify getting a couple more years on his contract to "build" around him wants to again bet on a failed and flawed gum wrapper of a QB. Matt Rhule is saying to Ben McAdoo "your QB don't matter", recycle THIS instead.

Matt Fhule. We went from respectable to laughing stock bottom feeder in short order.

For every Haason Reddick, there's a Tahir Whitehead 😆

Not that it matters either way. Your job as a head coach isn't to develop players. It's to win games. 

At the pro level, Matt Rhule doesn't do that.

Rhule could definitely be a successful coach...if he returned to the college level.

At the pro level, I'm pretty sure of 500 season is his ceiling, and I'm not especially confident he can even reach that.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
